Acts 10:8-32
So when he had explained all these things to them, he sent them to Joppa.The next day, as they went on their journey and drew near the city, Peter went up on the housetop to pray, about the sixth hour.Then he became very hungry and wanted to eat; but while they made ready, he fell into a tranceand saw heaven opened and an object like a great sheet bound at the four corners, descending to him and let down to the earth.In it were all kinds of four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.And a voice came to him,“ Rise, Peter; kill and eat.”But Peter said,“ Not so, Lord! For I have never eaten anything common or unclean.”And a voice spoke to him again the second time,“ What God has cleansed you must not call common.”This was done three times. And the object was taken up into heaven again.Now while Peter wondered within himself what this vision which he had seen meant, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius had made inquiry for Simon’s house, and stood before the gate.And they called and asked whether Simon, whose surname was Peter, was lodging there.While Peter thought about the vision, the Spirit said to him,“ Behold, three men are seeking you.Arise therefore, go down and go with them, doubting nothing; for I have sent them.”Then Peter went down to the men who had been sent to him from Cornelius, and said,“ Yes, I am he whom you seek. For what reason have you come?”And they said,“ Cornelius the centurion, a just man, one who fears God and has a good reputation among all the nation of the Jews, was divinely instructed by a holy angel to summon you to his house, and to hear words from you.”Then he invited them in and lodged them. On the next day Peter went away with them, and some brethren from Joppa accompanied him.And the following day they entered Caesarea. Now Cornelius was waiting for them, and had called together his relatives and close friends.As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him.But Peter lifted him up, saying,“ Stand up; I myself am also a man.”And as he talked with him, he went in and found many who had come together.Then he said to them,“ You know how unlawful it is for a Jewish man to keep company with or go to one of another nation. But God has shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean.Therefore I came without objection as soon as I was sent for. I ask, then, for what reason have you sent for me?”So Cornelius said,“ Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,and said,‘ Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your alms are remembered in the sight of God.send therefore to Joppa and call Simon here, whose surname is Peter. He is lodging in the house of Simon, a tanner, by the sea. When he comes, he will speak to you.’

Acts 11:5-14
“ I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.When I observed it intently and considered, I saw four-footed animals of the earth, wild beasts, creeping things, and birds of the air.And I heard a voice saying to me,‘ Rise, Peter; kill and eat.’But I said,‘ Not so, Lord! For nothing common or unclean has at any time entered my mouth.’But the voice answered me again from heaven,‘ What God has cleansed you must not call common.’Now this was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.At that very moment, three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent to me from Caesarea.Then the Spirit told me to go with them, doubting nothing. Moreover these six brethren accompanied me, and we entered the man’s house.And he told us how he had seen an angel standing in his house, who said to him,‘ Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon whose surname is Peter,who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.’
